Two of the finest musicians, what a thrill to have been there. Oistrakh is the finest violinist I have heard.

Music making on a transcendental level, the perfect dialogue between these two legendary artists brought such profound joy and meaning to audiences. Thank you so much for this wonderful post.

[@norafila83]

both considered to be the greatest sound producers on their instruments. this is pure gold❤

[@user-gu9ni9cf4c]

Когда я слушаю музыку в исполнении гениальных музыкантов у меня постоянно возникают мысли какой невероятной музыкальной памятью они должны обладать чтобы помнить исполняемый произведения не говоря уже о восприятии музыки чтобы донести до слушателя все тонкости произведения

[@musikmitsinn22]

Great artists, great Programme with an inner connection. And mostly contemporary and revolutionary music at that time. I'm not positive if nowadays someone has the courage to offer such a demanding programme to the audience. What a great heritage we can listen to here. Thank you for uploading this!

[@FranckSonata]

My all-time favourite recording of the Brahms second sonata. Every little nuance in particularly of the second movement is integrated with my being. I remember being shocked some years ago when I learned the performance was filmed too. That first *view* was like a miracle with a paradox ... How can they act so casual and yet produce this wonder, I felt. To anyone new to this recording: The sound quality is much better on records, it seems Melodiya had a separate feed or that the film soundtrack is of lesser quality (but both easily recognized as the identical performance). Fascinating to learn about the presence of DSCH himself! And to know that he heard the same performances.

[@shmuliknemanov4009]

i had the same experience with other artists

[@user-nh5uv5gs5j]

Божественная музыка! Спасибо великим музыкантам !

[@louise_rose]

Yes, just saw two splendid documentaries about these legendary musicians (by Bruno Monsaingeon, made around the year 2000 but re-aired on Mezzo) the week before Christmas - and can't wait to get the time to watch this! ♥

Восторг! В Бартоке Рихтер по-детски непосредственен и азартен.❤

[@user-ux9jy6ow7w]

Дай Бог, чтобы сохранились записи исполнения такими Звездами.

[@riccardopini9340]

Ancora oggi , a mezzo secolo di distanza dalla sua morte , l' umanità stenta a far sgorgare un violinista capace di dominare con tale semplicità ogni inclinazione espressiva dello strumento . Già i primissimi secondi della sonata di Brahms sarebbero sufficienti a rendere memorabile chi fosse in grado di suscitarli .

[@annamarialiberata4429]

Grazie di averlo condiviso! UN CAPOLAVORO!

[@aloisiuslouis]

Prokofiev ha scritto le più belle sonate per violino e pianoforte in assoluto, di tutti i tempi.

[@fabriziocarpine9930]

Sono assolutamente d'accordo!

[@zinam5795]

Everything is superb & gorgeous!!! But Shubert& Bthoven for BIS .....unbelievable !

[@benjamincuevaseninde]

-- Superbe concert entre deux illustres musiciens. La Sonate de Prokofiev est particulièrement belle. Le tourneur de page qui ressemble étrangement à Yves Saint-Laurent semble apprécié d'être là. :) --

Richter and Oistrakh! Two legends on the same stage! Couldn't get any better!

Ever hear his recordings with Oleg Kagan?

[@ourson5958]

Bravissimo!! Oistrakh et Richter ensemble,la musique fût....

[@Davidfooterman]

I grew up with Oistrakh and Richter as my idols. Unfortunately, silly politics prevented me from seeing them live. I think their Kreutzer and Spring sonatas are still the best on record. There is something special between these two that has yet to be equaled.

[@konstantinSE]

Колоссально!!

[@classicalalways]

An incredible video - thank you! Reminds us the rarity of seeing a duo of such incredible stature (and of course talent). It was easier back then for the Russians to do this, since the musicians lived there and knew each other for decades. Perlman and Ashkenazy were leaders of their era and played together, but since then it is an extreme rarity of a leading pianist and violinist to perform (even at a music festival - and sorry, I am not inclined to say it is happening where some people think it is). And this recital shows Oistrakh still at the height of his abilities- a terrible loss soonafter to the music world.

[@romahoffman4195]

oi oistrakh, such a tone and Richter! Thank you!

[@gerardbegni2806]

Outstanding interpretation, in particular but not only of this absolute masterwork which is the sonata by Bela Bartok.

[@diegeigergarnele7975]

I agree 100%, I think Oistrakh romantic fire gives the best Bartok sonata, especially when talking about such an early and passionate work.

[@gerardbegni2806]

@@diegeigergarnele7975 Thanks. In particuler, Bartok's sonata is typivcal of both his general style and sometimes his stylstic or writing hesitations.As such, I find it DOUBLY human.

[@diegeigergarnele7975]

@@gerardbegni2806 absolutely, many modern players forgot that Bartok is incredibly human. You just need to hear him play his music to understand how the dissonance was only felt by him as a way to express, not as some fancy theorical approach. Too bad nowadays we get a lot of percussive and rythmic performances, and the soul of Bartok gets often misunderstood for some kind of extravagant avant garde. I also enjoy Kremer playing of Bartok and nowadays I think Hadelich does justice to him as well.

[@gerardbegni2806]

@@diegeigergarnele7975 There is another quite attractive side of Batok. He was probably the most engaged "anifascist" composer in Europe. Yet he was himself prosecurted by the fascist regime of Regent Hörthy, who joined the hitlerian camp. I do not rememebr er if the story appied to Bluebard's castle or to the miracuous mandarin, but the librettist was considered as much more "dangerous" than Bartok himself. So, it was proposed to Bartok to play his music but without mentioning the name of the librettiste. Bartok refussed.

[@Fritz_Maisenbacher]

Richter was a very "personal person" ..; sometimes uncredibly courageous and possessed (Prokoviev), or able to break the borders of possible understanding of the music he played (Schubert), sometimes so precautious, quite shy or neutral .... like a virgin. But Oistrakh was always "perfect", not transcendental, not under the fire of inspiration, but the best servant of the music. He makes me think to Karl Böhm, who conducted always "exactly". (il dirigeait "juste") Here, as a result, no surprise, but "perfect music".

[@irmtrudagnoli3551]

[@eustacequinlank7418]

I don't know what it is, but there is something strange going on with Richter's page turner at times. He seems to be grinding his teeth and making devilish like smirks, particularly during the Prokofiev. I mean, lordy at 1:01:26 it reveals it all!

He has to turn pages for both of them sometimes...quite stressful!
